A tramp was sleeping on a park bench late at night. A man and woman were walking past. One of them tapped him on the shoulders and asked, Excuse me! What's the time? The tramp was very annoyed at being woken up. I don't know! He said angrily. I haven't got a watch. And he went back to sleep.
Some time later another man was passing. He woke the tramp up and said, I'm sorry to bother you, but I wonder if you could tell me what time it is.
Again the tramp said that he didn't know. By now he was very fed up, so he got a pen and a piece of paper and wrote I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TIME IS on it, and went back to sleep.
Half an hour later a policman was passing. He read the sign, woke the tramp up and said, it's 2.30, sir :)

If I was the tramp, I would write "Don't wake me up until September Ends". That was a line from a song by Greenday.
